    Wait (Acoustic Version) is a simple story told by a voice and a guitar. The mysterious guitar melodies back a lyrical narrative that speaks of anticipation, dedication, and the eagerness to see what’s to come. As the song says, the only true way to overcome these feelings is to hang around and find out.
    CD: The Bluff Road Sessions   Label: Frantic Productions/Independent
    Credits: Harres, Heath. Recorded and Mixed by Jim and JP Doiron.

    Story Behind the Song
    The "row row row your boat" echo effect in the break was actually an accident. Scott did two separate vocal tracks, because he wasn't happy with the first one. We ended up using the second track for all the verses, but we layered them both on top of James' background in the choruses and the break. There's also a subtle hum-noise underneath the second verse that you can hear if you listen for it. Also, the tapping sounds right before the second chorus ("like the ticking pass of time...") actually required both James and Scott to pull off. James struck the strings, while Scott tapped the guitar body.

    Lyrics
    If it comes down to it I’ll show you the way
    I’ve been writing this for days
    In the letter I wrote that you’d be sorely missed
    So far away you don’t exist

    CHORUS
    And we’ll wait
    And we’ll see
    And we’ll wait
    Wait, wait, wait, wait

    I’m not responsible – No, blame just isn’t here
    The frightening ending is so near
    Concealed in melody and in between the lines
    It’s like the ticking pass of time

    CHORUS

    We’ll wait, and we’ll wait
    And we’ll see, and we’ll see
    And we’ll wait, and we’ll see
    And we’ll wait, and we’ll wait, and we’ll wait

    CHORUS
